Product Description
The IBM ES0P 775GB SAS 4k SFF-3 SSD (Part Number: 00E8671) is a high-performance 2.5-inch solid-state drive designed for IBM Power Systems running IBM i. With a 6 Gbps SAS interface, 775GB capacity formatted with 4224-byte sectors, and CCIN 59EA, it features a 256MB DRAM cache and eMLC technology for 10 drive writes per day (DWPD). The drive uses a Gen-3 carrier tray for SFF-3 SAS bays in system units but is incompatible with EXP24S Gen2 drawers due to carrier differences. It delivers reliable, high-speed storage for virtualization and data-intensive applications, with error correction for robust performance. The ES0P is optimized for Power8 and Power9 servers like 8286-41A and 9009-41A, supporting demanding workloads like ERP and databases. This SSD offers a cost-effective storage solution for upgrading system units, enhancing scalability and reliability in challenging environments, ensuring efficiency and data integrity.

Compatibility
The IBM ES0P 775GB SAS 4k SFF-3 SSD (00E8671) is compatible with IBM Power Systems running IBM i, providing high-performance storage for system units. It supports SFF-3 SAS bays in Power8 and Power9 servers, such as 8286-41A, 8286-42A, 9009-22A, 9009-41A, 9009-42A, 9119-MME, and 9040-MR9, but is incompatible with EXP24S Gen2 drawers due to carrier differences. The drive, with CCIN 59EA, uses 4224-byte sectors for IBM i and requires compatible SAS controllers (e.g., EJ0L, EJ14) for connectivity. It cannot be mixed in arrays with drives of different sector sizes. The ES0P optimizes system performance, supporting virtualization and data-intensive applications like ERP and databases:
- Power8: 8286-41A, 8286-42A; Power9: 9009-22A, 9009-41A, 9009-42A, 9119-MME, 9040-MR9.
- Supports IBM i with 4224-byte sectors.
- Requires EJ0L or EJ14 SAS controllers with SFF-3 bays.
Note: Incompatible with EXP24S Gen2 drawers; requires matching sector sizes.
